“…This trend is generally in conformity with the findings of Sugawara et al 5 ) For example, by successively changing the position of the double bond in the cyclohexene ring, Sugawara concluded that the most important axial hydrogens were at the 2-or 6-position, while the loss of an axial hydrogen at the 4-position did not significantly alter the activity. We also found that, between the 2-and 4-substituted esters which are devoid of these crucial axial hydrogens, the 4-tetrahydropyran esters elicited better activity than the 2-substituted derivatives.…”

“…This view is also supported by the response of cockroaches to bread. Several studies have examined the attractiveness of various food stuffs and chemicals to cockroaches (Tsuji 1966;Sugawara et al 1975aSugawara et al , 1975bReierson and Rust 1977;Rust and Reierson 1981;Ballard and Gold 1982;Wileyto and Boush 1983;Brenner and Patterson 1989;Brenner and Pierce 1991;Pandey et al 1994Pandey et al , 1995, and bread has emerged as one of the most attractive food substances; it is frequently used in trapping studies in apartments, often mixed with beer Bennett 1982, 1983;Barcay et al 1990). Bread was highly attractive in our olfactory assays (Fig.…”

Several insecticide bait formulations were evaluated for their attractiveness to cockroaches in olfactometer assays in the laboratory and in trapping experiments in the field. Included in the assays were bait stations, gels, pastes, and a powder that contained one of the following active ingredients: abamectin, boric acid, chlorpyrifos, or hydramethylnon. There were significant differences among the baits in their attractiveness to the German cockroach, Blattella germanica (L.). In trapping experiments, Avert powder (abamectin), Maxforce station and gel, and Siege gel (all hydramethylnon) were consistently attractive to B. germanica adults and nymphs. Laboratory olfactometer assays with adult males confirmed these results and showed that nymphs were as responsive as males whereas females were less responsive. Our bioassays also demonstrate that attractiveness of bait can be dramatically affected by the age of the bait. One week of aging significantly reduced the attractiveness of Avert powder in both laboratory and field assays. Aging, however did not diminish the attractiveness of Maxforce gel, indicating that the formulation may be critical for retention of attractiveness of baits. Baits that were most attractive to the German cockroach were also the most attractive to nymphs and adults of the brownbanded cockroach, Supella longipalpa (F.).

All the positional and configurational isomers of methylcyclohexanol were prepared. They were converted into· C 3 -C 6 n-alkanoates. Their attractiveness to the Genhan cockroach was tested by a comparative trap test. trans-4-Methylcyc10hexyl butanoate exhibited the heights activity. This cOlnpound has the san1e longitudinal molecular size as that of propyl cyc1ohexaneacetate, and hence was supposed to interact with the receptor site that accommodates the latter. Neither cisnor trans-3-methylcyclohexyl butanoate gave a significant result. 1-Methylcyclohexyl butanoate was also inactive. trans-2-Methylcyclohexyl butanoate, as weB as cisand trans-2-methylcyc1ohexyl pentanoates attracted the cockroaches only when the cis and trans pairs \vere tested silTIultaneously.
